Assembly - Shirlington

The beef and broccoli from Beng Beng was remarkably tasteless. Like I don’t understand how you prepare and cook food and have it have literally no taste. The beef was overcooked and the veggies (mostly peppers) were undercooked.

I recently visited “Assembly” with high expectations, only to be profoundly disappointed by the quality of the food. We ordered the fried chicken and fries, along with a crispy shrimp burrito, and it was a regrettable decision.The fried chicken and fries tasted old, as if they had been sitting around for far too long. The crispy shrimp burrito was equally disappointing, lacking the promised contents and leaving us with a barely edible meal. It was not just bad; it was downright disgusting.Adding to the frustration, attempts to address our concerns were met with frustration as there is no reachable phone number. Instead, all calls lead to a voicemail abyss, leaving us without any recourse for expressing our dissatisfaction.I strongly advise potential patrons to steer clear of “Assembly.” The dismal food quality, coupled with the lack of customer support, makes it an establishment to avoid. Save yourself the disappointment, and look elsewhere for a satisfying dining experience. We certainly won’t be returning, and I encourage others to heed this warning.

Love this gigantic, modern food hall in the middle of Arlington. Can order from QR codes or server from several outlets, which is so much better than waiting in lines and counter service. Have been a couple times and all of the food I have had is good. Check hours, as it's not always open when you would assume, or all venues are not available. Pic below is from brunch, the breakfast burrito and tots were a perfect combo. It's always shockingly empty when I have been in here, but maybe during off peak times. There's some great outdoor seating as well. My only wish would be they had some stairs to get there so we could bring our dog. Keep up the great work.

Manager was incredibly rude to me my coworkers when we dined in to work from home happy hour. After ordering, paying for our drinks, the server questioned our IDs insinuating that it was a fake ID. They refused to serve the drink we ordered and had to call a manager. The manager did not help the situation as she was very rude and extremely unapologetic. She maintained a nasty snappy attitude telling us the servers do not have to serve anybody. We ended up having the show our PASSPORTS to prove that did not bring a fake ID because THEY refused to believe us even after we begged them to scan it to prove it was real. After the entire ordeal was over, we did not receive any apology from the staff or the manager for the inconvenience or their attitudes. This place is advertised as a place for professionals to come work but they themselves are extremely unprofessional rude.

Live hype venue which always hosts professional crowd with a good choice of food and laid back service. Love this place for after-work diner drink! From the menu, the “Jive” is the best Turkey BLT in the DMV area
